I agree with training classes , however , what is the way out of the dilemna if tax hikes are not considered ? Is it feasible to keep the present staus quo regarding police , until the housing market comes back to levels where tax revenues will again cover the costs of police potection ? I think either alternative is draconian but apparently necessarry .A special temporary assessment tax of say $1000 per household should not cause an exodus anymore than wanting to get out of a town that is reverting to Dodge City .
